I am going to be on the bleeding edge of this because IBM chucked us
into exchanges.


Florida isn't exactly good place to be with this.
Not sure of all the details, but I've seen "things" on the internet.
Your governor putting up roadblocks to exchange enrollment doesn't help.
A Richard suggested, this isn't set up well for higher income folks.
But that's really only if they choose the type of "golden" plans which
do what you don't like - remove out-of-pocket costs.
I expect the premiums on those type plans will subsidize "lesser" plans.
Many of the issues people whine about should and could be addressed if
the degenerate Congress wasn't...degenerate.
Good luck to you.
You've got an absolutely great head start - Medicare.
So you're only talking about a supplemental.
You can commiserate with Mr. Krause about the big evil corporation
stripping your company benefits.


Awwwww. My health plan benefits aren't changing, nor is my premium going
up, though I do plan to switch to Medicare and a Supplemental at my next
birthday. It's not easy to figure out which Supplementals provide the
widest and deepest coverage. My monthly health care premiums will be
going...down.

---------------------------

Don't bet on that. I'll bet you will find that Medicare with a decent
supplemental plan will be close to whatever you are paying now.
I've been talking to those slightly ahead of me in years (I turn 65 and
am eligible for Medicare in another year). All have told me that their
monthly premium cost didn't change much.


Mine went down a lot. I had a Blue Cross, $2k deductible plan and was
$1200/ month 5 years ago for wife and I. Medicare dropped that to about
$700 month then. Year I had a large tax bill, was back up to about $1100
month. Now is about $700 month for Medicare and ARrP United healthcare
supplement.
